HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION


  Potential Health Effects

     Inhalation of high concentrations of vapor is harmful and
     may cause heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or death.
     Intentional misuse or deliberate inhalation may cause death
     without warning.  Vapor reduces oxygen available for
     breathing and is heavier than air.  Causes skin and eye
     irritation.

     HUMAN HEALTH EFFECTS:

     Human health effects of overexposure by eye contact may
     include eye irritation with discomfort, tearing, or blurring
     of vision.  Skin contact with the liquid may cause drying of
     the skin with repeated contact resulting in mild skin
     irritation with discomfort or rash.  Overexposure by
     inhalation may cause temporary nervous system depression
     with anesthetic effects such as dizziness, headache,
     confusion, incoordination, and loss of consciousness;
     temporary alteration of the heart's electrical activity with
     irregular pulse, palpitations, or inadequate circulation, or
     the effects of exclusion of oxygen with grossly excessive
     exposures.  Ingestion may include nonspecific discomfort,
     such as nausea, headache, or weakness.

     Individuals with preexisting diseases of the central nervous
     or cardiovascular system may have increased susceptibility
     to the toxicity of excessive exposures.

  Carcinogenicity Information

  None of the components present in this material at concentrations
  equal to or greater than 0.1% are listed by IARC, NTP, OSHA or ACGIH
  as a carcinogen.


FIRST AID MEASURES


  First Aid

     INHALATION
        If high concentrations are inhaled, immediately remove to
        fresh air.  Keep person calm.  If not breathing, give
        artificial respiration.  If breathing is difficult, give
        oxygen.  Call a physician.

     SKIN CONTACT
        In case of skin contact, flush skin with plenty of water
        for 15 minutes.  Get medical attention if irritation is
        present.

     EYE CONTACT
        In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with
        plenty of water for 15 minutes.  Call a physician.

     INGESTION
        If swallowed, no specific intervention is indicated as
        the compound is not likely to be hazardous by ingestion.
        However, consult a physician if necessary.

  Notes to Physicians

     Because of possible disturbances of cardiac rhythm,
     catecholamine drugs, such as epinephrine, should be used
     with special caution in situations of emergency life
     support.

     Autoignition            : Not determined
     Autodecomposition       : >593 C (>1099 F)

     Fire and Explosion Hazards:

     Drums may rupture under fire conditions.  Decomposition may
     occur.

  Extinguishing Media

     As appropriate for combustibles in area.

  Fire Fighting Instructions

     Self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) is required if
     containers rupture and contents are spilled under fire
     conditions.  Water runoff should be contained and
     neutralized prior to release.


ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES


  Safeguards (Personnel)

     NOTE: Review FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES and HANDLING (PERSONNEL)
     sections before proceeding with clean-up.  Use appropriate
     PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT during clean-up.

  Accidental Release Measures

     Ventilate area.  Do not flush into sewers.  Dike spill.
     Collect on absorbent material and transfer to steel drums
     for recovery or disposal.  Use self-contained breathing
     apparatus (SCBA) for large spills.  Comply with Federal,
     State and local regulations on reporting releases.


HANDLING AND STORAGE


  Handling (Personnel)

     Use with sufficient ventilation to keep employee exposure
     below recommended limits.

  Storage

     Clean, dry area.  Do not store above 125 deg F (52 deg C).


EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION


  Engineering Controls

     Normal ventilation for standard manufacturing procedures
     is generally adequate.  Local exhaust should be used when
     large amounts are released.  Mechanical ventilation
     should be used in low or enclosed places.

  Personal Protective Equipment

     Impervious gloves should be used to avoid prolonged or
     repeated exposure.  Chemical splash goggles should be
     available for use as needed to prevent eye contact.  Under
     normal manufacturing conditions, no respiratory protection
     is required when using this product.  Self-contained
     breathing apparatus (SCBA) is required if a spill occurs.

STABILITY AND REACTIVITY


  Chemical Stability

     Stable.

     However, avoid open flames and high temperatures.

  Incompatibility with Other Materials

     Incompatible with alkali or alkaline earth metals- powdered
     Al, Zn, Be, etc.

  Decomposition

     Decomposition products are hazardous.  PORTA 11 can be
     decomposed by high temperatures (open flames, glowing metal
     surfaces, etc.) forming hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids,
     and possibly carbonyl halides.  These materials are toxic
     and irritating.  Contact should be avoided.

  Polymerization

     Polymerization will not occur.


TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION


  Animal Data

       Inhalation 4-hour LC50:  26,200 ppm in rats
       Oral ALD              :  3725 mg/kg in rats

     The compound is not a skin irritant but is a mild eye
     irritant.  Toxic effects in rats exposed by inhalation
     include central nervous system and anesthetic effects at
     high concentrations.  Concentrations of 0.35% and higher
     caused cardiac sensitization in dogs.  Various
     cardiovascular and circulatory abnormalities have also been
     reported in other animals.  Changes in the lungs, liver,
     brain and spleen were observed in a study of rats exposed by
     inhalation to 12 times the TLV.  In another study at 25
     times the TLV, rats, guinea pigs, and cats exhibited no
     microscopic evidence of damage to the heart, lungs, kidney,
     liver or spleen.  Exposures by ingestion or skin resulted in
     no evidence of toxicity in rats, dogs or rabbits.
